The lack of variation in the BMIs is telling.

May just be coincidence, but all the teams run by Pats guys are at the low end of the weights (Tenn,Atl, Det) along with the Pats.

About 315# each. Seems about right.

Yep. I spotted the same thing. I suspect Sports science is so well developed these days that the relevant scouts etc know what their ideal lineman looks like, and there seems to be consensus about this. Clearly, they're looking for tall, heavily muscled guys who have some level of fitness and stamina. Guys who are strong and fat are of limited use, because they will get killed in the passing game.

I would like to see the same list from 25 years ago as a comparison.

Does Cannon equal two players?
